XYplorer Beta Club

Great feedback. I have a small group of folders to explore this week and will try the count limit string.

What's the limit. This is a pain to get to the error (time) and have to restart and chop up in chunks not knowing how much is going to be accepted.

So it took an hour to locate the files and near the hour to have this error (attached).
Error 14
Out of String Space.

I'm attempting to delete ~1/3 at a time this moment.

Great plan - hope sooner than later. I'm in the process of deleting 368,000 (?) files and soon to seek these (??). So far, i'm near 20-minutes in the queue "preparing to recycle" this first batch. I'll try to be more patient and allow more time for this batch to finish being prepared befor...

Problem, from client view, multiple User Profile sets are stacked into one set - creating duplicates. Need to reach that folder structure (several in different locations on this network). Select target directory (top) and Search using several filters (i.e. *(?).*, desktop.ini, etc.). Each search pro...

config is what is in the previous attachment - nothing special, select top folder and search within.

As i wake this morning.... My system is is 4Ghz XEON 8-core, Hmmm. not slow. (W10 Enterprise) Gig. network at all points. Primary access is to QNAP NAS or second system with 2-SATA chassis attached (8-drives). I run xyplorer from my system or the second system which holds the extra SATA drives. The ...

Definitely my BAD.
Have been in this mode for about a month so it has become a habit to reach across w/o thinking about it.
My apology.

note the attachment, this and other Filter items that i use. Noting that much of the time i'm working across the network to the NAS drive or other drives USB attached (4-bay) to a secondary system.
I should have described earlier.....

after the search is complete and i select ALL to delete the display (on large data sets) seems to stall. Then after a period of time i sometimes stop the process, research to find that it has deleted everything.

on my side, different systems, it is during that process that it seems to get hung (in appearance) so after 10 minutes or more i will stop it and rerun the process. Many of the times it comes back with no additional findings.

:-)
No prob.

I do like this program, hope my communications is received as intended - to be constructive.

Thanks, i have had over 300,000 items selected in a single search. It would be helpful to have an indicator of its progress - not that I'm seeking a counter but in datasets this large it seems like it gets hung (at least on displaying an empty list) somewhere along the way. Often i end up rerunning ...

Why does the Found Count (discovered files in search) turn to a Red font after a while of searching? Is there a file limit or Cache issue that is affecting my TB file-set searches - seems that selecting large sets (i.e. 10's of thousands) of files to delete don't get deleted unless I manually select...
